Cartier had two ships and 61 men. During the month of June, having crossed the north Atlantic in twenty days, Cartier entered the Strait of Belle Isle from the north; by July he was off Prince Edward Island; and by August he and his men were headed home to St. Malo. In the spring of the next year, 1535, Cartier was back, this time sailing up the highway into Canada, the St. Lawrence River, there to visit the sites of present day Quebec and Montreal.
